"Convienience because of central location. We had a pool view balcony. Less expensive. A good option to consider."

"On the Ocean! Best location in Kona. Great Staff, never ran into one who wasn’t helpful in a genuine way. I will be using this resort for my future trips to Kona. Ahhhh. . . But these reviews will cause me to plan farther in advance if people catch! I certainly hope they do! Mahalo "

"The rooms were clean and the views were amazing. We loved the access to the beach steps from our room. The morning staff, especially Matt, were amazing when we realized they gave us the wrong room the night before, he went above and beyond! I wish I could have seen him again. The front desk staff in the afternoons and evenings were very rude, acted like they don’t want any mainlanders there. With rooms had some issues, our last room the shower water was scalding hot unless you left it on for 10 mins before you got in. If you want a beautiful view, amazing staff at the restaurant, and easy access to an incredible luau and little beach, this is the place for you. We personally will find something else next time. "

"Well done renovation. Central location. Nice pool area. Excellent coffee cart with real Kona coffee. No complaints. I did see lots of people complaining about the a/c unit noise. It was the same as many hotels. No big deal. I recommend this hotel"

"This property is located on popular Ali' i Drive, It is across this busy road from the ocean front larger units of Kona Bali Kai. The ocean view of the breaking waves can be seen through the parking garage. The one-bedroom garden units facing the street are ocean view in this manner. All units have keyless entry and is not working for this unit. Management said that is a big problem forcing us to use a key box that also exists and threatens a $150 charge if the key is lost. We never carried the key. The parking for these units can be limited and make it necessary to park in the parking garage across the busy street. This unit looked clean but had a roach problem. We found them in the kitchen flatware drawer, on the counter tops, in the bathroom and on the floor, For this reason we kept our dishes we wanted to use in the refrigerator. \ The bedroom window has wooden louvre slats that do not close. A few nights there was noise coming from outside with people chatting and laughing and every morning about 5 a.m. automatic garden sprinklers came on right outside the window. There are ceiling fans in the main room and bedroom. The ceiling lights turn on when they want to many times a night, The main area has a room air conditioner that works well to cool the room down after returning from site seeing during the day. It is not adjustable but we found the fans were enough to sleep."
